Where has time gone?

So it is November already, are you ready for the holidays?  If you are in the states, do you do a big Thanksgiving Dinner?  Well this year we are having a small one, just Rob and my younger son.   My daughter in law works in retail, so they are never able to travel during the Thanksgiving/Christmas holidays..  So this year it is just the three of us and we will still do a big dinner.  I like to put my tree up on Black Friday and this year I’m getting a bigger tree and we are going to put it in a different location in out living room, right by the front door so you can see the lights through the window by the door.

Christmas this year will be the three of us and then later in the day we will be having friends over for dinner and games.  Are you an early shopper for Christmas??  I try to be, but it never seems to work out that way, LOL.  We are having our Third Annual Ugly Sweater Party this year, with a twist.. adding a “As Seen on Tv” part to it..  Guest can bring a wrapped as seen on tv item that we will exchange later in the evening.  Oh and we will be doing our Cookie Exchange on the same day.  Do you have a good cookie recipe you would to share with me??

And I’m SUPER excited about my New Years plans, I’m headed to KY to spend a week with my family.

This past weekend we went up north and went atv’ing with our friends Buzz & Rachel, we had such a great day and I’m attaching some of the pics.

Hugs and Kisses,
